That aside, I guess I'm still kinda confused about the sticky fruit. Who did profii try to send it to originally?

Still want to lynch S_S for not hammering - but I’ll at least re read why I shouldn’t and reconsider

I still think there's a high chance both SS and Elsa are scum. But as a disloyal rolecop claim, if SS is telling the truth scum might kill him even to avoid the consequences when he flips town despite the mislynch potential later (probably not tho).

Elsa as scum might possibly be a higher value target for the moment. Let's consider the likelihood, rather high, that he got a sticky fruit. We already have a strong indication that the scum have a sticky fruit vendor given the events surrounding TLK. So they vended fruit to Elsa last night, protecting him and asceticizing him.

One of my main concerns here regarding SS was that he emphatically encouraged us to vig Elsa last night; this desire was based on the rolecop claim, but if he was coordinating with the vendor and Elsa it is likely he just wanted us to waste our limited night actions on that slot.

BUT it would also be good to get rid of the fruit, and since Profii has now received the Neighborizor shot there's at least some % chance that SS is actually town. Elsa is probably the more likely red flip. If he's green, then wtf, how does scum have both a sticky fruit vendor and an enchantress? That sounds like bullshit to me.

SS's claim is still kinda garbage, and both of his results tell us almost nothing. Elsa already claimed traitor, Xtoxm was already obviously town. No new info on either of those. Frankly I think if he was town his choices would be better.

I'll talk about it with Nancy some more but for now VOTE: Elsa

Probably one of them is the BEST choice, while the other is still likely better than a poor one.
BUT.
Out of the two of them it feels like Elsa is the one who needs to go first.
I dislike the fact that they didn't end up at the end of the wagon.
If it's a mod-decision to not count the vote-unvote when done inside one post, fine. (I disagree with that as a principle, but it's up to the mod)
But even then, if I were to have been in Elsas shoes, I would've made a post that unvoted EARLIER.
I mean, why not?
Then just revote when it was time.
So if they made a mistake, or if we think the mod made a "mistake", it doesn't matter.
They both shat the bed, but we start with Elsa.

My 2,4 cents.

Also, DrewVa, why would you have unvoted separately from your your revote? If you assume unvoting and revoting in the same post would work, why not just do that? It seems disingenuous to say you would have played around a problem you wouldn't have anticipated.

If you count the post the person voted in, would not a higher number post be counted after the preceding posts?

If an unvote occurred, an action of unvoting a player should happen. Just because the next action - voting the same player - occurred in the same post does not nullify the unvote action.

Not reasonable at all imo (especially considering the mechanics of this game), but this can be tabled for after the game.

In post 6718, davesaz wrote:Counting revotes as changing vote position (or not as the case may be) is critically important for plurality lynch, as it re-establishes which tied player takes precedence if there is a tie.
If you aren't counting the revotes in the same post the players need to be informed.
In an open vote game it might be apparent anyway (if VC's happen often enough). It's even worse in a closed vote game to not define what the correct result would be.

Why? If you have info townconfirming Elsa, you need to share it.
